2026 K2 Omen Team

The 2026 K2 Omen Team gets a graphic update but otherwise returns unchanged. Now in year two, and as an athlete driven ski, the Omen Team is a prime performer in the park world, lending a sturdy feel and a wider-bodied format to competitive and recreational slopestyle performance. The Omen Team follows many principles laid forth by the outgoing Poacher, offering freestyle enthusiasts a firm and supportive platform to stand on and jump off. These skis are ideally built and shaped for freestyle performance, but they also have some great all-mountain features as well. Poacher was always a great mid-90's twin that went back and forth between the terrain park, woods, bumps, and groomers. Omen Team fills this role as well, and it’s a big one in the ski world today. Fun, durable, and crisp, the Omen Team is a prime modern twin.

For a twin tip, K2 puts some sophistication and thought into the construction. Built with K2’s aspen micro block core, the Omen Team has a great blend of light weight and high energy. Like K2’s been doing for years, they wrap that core in a triaxial fiberglass braid to boost the stiffness and pop. Speaking of boost, the skis also feature K2’s Carbon Boost Braid which adds carbon to that glass weave to further energize the ski. One of the concepts for the updated Reckoner series last year filters into Omen, and that’s the Twin Tech Sidewalls. By extending the thickness of the profile into the tips and tails, the Omen Team gets a bump in durability without making the ski too stiff. That’s a decent change from what we had with Poacher—that ski was consistently stiff and hefty. Some skiers got along great with that, but the new tech seems to be more beneficial for more skiers. Tester Ryan Nagle says that it feels “very good. It felt strong yet forgiving.”
